Don’t forget that there are always other factors at play that help determine values when evaluating the worth of fancy serial numbers. People tend to like serial number ones on one dollar bills, serial number two on two dollar bills, and so on. Fancy serial numbers on rare notes will be worth more than the same fancy serial number on a common note.

Don’t forget that fancy serial numbers on higher denomination notes don’t really add much value. A $1 bill could be worth $25 thanks to a fancy serial number. However, the same fancy serial number on a $100 bill won’t make it worth $2,500. A $100 bill is already worth $100, so it takes a really important serial number to add a lot of extra value there. It would be very costly to collect $100 bills just because of their serial numbers.

Don’t forget that if the serial number on the note begins or ends with a star symbol that the note will likely have some additional value. Some star notes are already very rare, so the fancy serial number will not add any extra value. However, in almost every other case, the addition of a star symbol to a fancy serial number does add a little extra pizzazz.
